I haven't done this with > ext4, but I have used LVM with ext2, ext3 and labels in this fashion. That is the problem. I was using e2label and got a error. tune2fs worked fine. I get this now: root@fireball / # blkid /dev/mapper/data-data1 /dev/mapper/data-data1: UUID="7500437d-700c-4836-a878-29507af67a8d" TYPE="ext4" LABEL="data" root@fireball / # Sort of hard to believe I got this far with LVM tho. I got some space now. /dev/mapper/data-data1 960906608 255981512 656122832 29% /data Now I can download some more of my TV shows. One more question. I have two drives. A 250Gb and a 750Gb. Originally the data was on the 750Gb drive. I set the 250Gb up on LVM then moved things over from the 750Gb. I then added the 750Gb to the VG and resized the file system. So, in theory the data is on the 250Gb drive. Let's say I want to remove the 250Gb drive. I would use pvmove to do that right? When I ran pvmove /dev/sdb, which is the 250Gb drive, then it would remove all the data from that drive so that it could be removed. Am I close? I'm not planning to do that but just wanting to get a better understanding of this LVM thing. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
